WBG - Harmonized List of Fragile Situations
This dataset contains the countries in situations of fragility, conflict and violence from 2006 to-date.
The World Bank Group's (WBG) Fragile, Conflict and Violence Group (formally the Center on Conflict, Security and Development CCSD) annually releases the Harmonized List of Fragile Situations.
The first such list was compiled in fiscal year 2006 and has gone through a series of changes in terms of classification from the Low-Income Countries Under Stress List (LICUS) (2006-2009), to the Fragile States List (2010) to the now Harmonized list of Fragile Situations (2011-2015). The concept and the list have evolved as the WBG's understanding of the development challenges in countries affected by violence and instability has matured.
Each country in the Harmonized FCS list is considered as a FCS, including low CPIA and peacekeeping.
We mark down all the country appear in the list as FCS(1), and the rest of the world are non-FCS(0) annually.
